Crop & Scale

If you plan to crop your image, for example shooting interviews in 4K and zooming in post for the 'close up' or for cameras that don't send a fullscreen feed to the monitor, this tool lets you pre-visualize a custom crop and will automatically scale up the remaining portion to fill the page.

Crop & Scale - Quick Start

In this section we will make highly efficient use of screen space by employing Crop & Scale to preview a 2.39 cinemascope aspect ratio and a full-width Waveform with no overlapping elements or wasted space.

From any page with a feed, click the joystick or tap the screen to bring up ‘Add New Tool’.

Navigate to Scale > Crop & Scale and select the '+' to add it to the current page.

Once added you can edit the settings by navigating right or tapping the right arrow when ‘Crop & Scale’ is highlighted.

Navigate to HEIGHT.

Take note of the red border - anything outside this area gets cropped when exiting the tool.
